| So, I have not written on this in a long time. I guess I just felt like no one was reading it and it got annoying to update all the time. Plus, all my friends knew what I was doing anyways. In this case, though, I think this will be a good way for people to see what I'm doing this summer. So, for the summer of 2006, this blog is officially returning. Hurray? Ok, well, I leave for LT in the morning, and I am really pumped. I haven't done anything for the past two weeks except read lots and think about Amber. I need to busy myself or I will go crazy. I hope everyone's summer is going well. Mine is about to get a whole lot more exciting. I hope to update this like every week or so. Not much more than that. This is not supposed to be a journal of my life, but more of an update to people that might care. Virginia Beach, here I come.

| For the record, Death Cab for Cutie is an awesome band. Definitely one
of my favorites. Anyway, classes are getting a little bit better, or I
should say my attitude towards them is getting a little better. I mean,
I still really don't like them and I couldn't care less about them as
long as I pass the classes, but after thinking a lot about them I
realized there is a reason God has placed me at this school and in
these classes, so I must make the most of it. I really am looking
forward to the day when I no longer have homework, though. That will
rock. I still like math a lot. There are things that I am learning that
are interesting and math always sparks my attention, but I will be glad
when I don't have to stress about it anymore. Also, I hate writing
papers. I had to write a 4-6 page paper for anthro and it took me way
too long. I'm just not wired to write papers well. I seriously write
like an 8th grader. We all have our areas of expertise and that is just
not mine. I'm gonna go watch some tv and chill out because I've been
doing way too much work lately. I'm also really pumped for the
Northwestern game this weekend. I'm going with a bunch of friends so
that will be cool. Go Blue!

| Ok, I know it's been a few weeks since I've updated. I guess I
just get lazy when it comes to updating. Fall Break just ended
yesterday, and I wish it was still here. Breaks are so awesome. I
really just don't like classes right now. I'm not trying to get
sympathy from anyone because we all hate classes, but it's just how I
feel. I keep feeling more and more like I'm not going to go into
anything math related after I graduate. I kinda want to go into some
kind of ministry, like go on staff with New Life or go to seminary or
something. I feel like that is so much more important than anything I
could ever do with math. Therefore, I'm finding it hard to stay
motivated and work hard in classes, because they are not my passion. I
want to just hang out with people and learn about people's lives. I
know that sounds kinda weird, but it's so gratifying to learn about
other people. I guess I have to first get more comfortable talking with
people. That might help. Anyway, I guess I'm just feeling a little held
back with classes right now. Like I should drop out and just preach on
the diag everyday or something, because to me that is so much more
important than doing stupid proofs all day long. I've decided that my
goal with class is to just pass them. I'm not going to kill myself
trying to get good grades. I'm just going to coast through and focus
more on what I really care about. I feel like Jesus would be a bad
student, because he would probably just be talking with people all the
time and finding out about who they are. I know there are so many
people that are lost and searching for something amazing and
fulfilling. Also everyone just wants to feel loved, so I think that's
why so many people try to use cheap substitutes rather than experience
how loving and personal God is. I know people think that sounds so
weird, but once you feel it you can't help but want other people to
feel it too. It hurts when I feel like some of my friends need that so
bad, but I don't know how to bring it up. There's a reason why we're
not supposed to get drunk, do drugs, have sex before marriage, etc. God
isn't trying to be mean by denying us these things, but they are not
truly gratifying. They are all weak attempts at pleasure. I'm kinda
rambling but I just feel so strongly about this. And also a lot of
people feel that once they do this stuff, there's no turning back and
they will never be free of all that filth. That's just not true. If you
don't agree or you're curious, just ask me about it. The longer I'm a
Christian the more I see that it really is the truth. Jesus rocks my
world, and I hope everyone one day will agree with me and see how
wonderful He is. I know I kind of went on a rant there, but it's just
what I've been thinking a lot about lately.

| Classes suck...they really do. I just want to hang out with friends and
goof off all the time. I really don't like doing homework or reading
for class. I'm halfway done with college, though, so that's good. Band
is cool, too. It's great to be in the big house when Michigan wins and
the game is enjoyable. Gamedays are so long, but definitely fun. I love
being a part of the Michigan cymbal line, because we work so hard. Our
new show is going to be really hard and complicated, but it's gonna be
sweet. I know we can handle it and it'll come off well. I hope people
enjoy it. I really like the new death cab cd. They always put out great
cds. I bought the foo fighters cd, and it's really stupid because I
cant copy it to my computer because it's protected. I can only put it
on my computer in wma format, so I cant listen to it in itunes, which
is really annoying, because i paid for the cd. I should be able to do
whatever i want with it. Anyway, I'm already sick of school, but glad
to be in Ann Arbor, if that makes any sense. This entry is really random and choppy, but that's how my brain works.

| Ok, I know it's been a very long time since I've updated. Sorry about
that. For 10 weeks I was in Florida with not a lot of free time, so I
just decided to update when I got back. Then after I got back I was too
lazy to update. Then I had two straight weeks of band all day long, so
no time there. Yesterday was our first game of the season and it was
freaking awesome. I love Michigan Football so much it's ridiculous.
Michigan won 33-17 and I am so pumped for next week's game against
Notre Dame. It will be very nice to not have band all day long though.
Now I can finally hang out with friends, do stuff with people, and
actually have free time. Except for that whole thing called classes. No
big deal. Classes never rule my life anyway. So, yeah. I was in Florida
for 10 weeks with New Life Church. That was pretty intense. Kinda
redefined all my spiritual beliefs, which was good. God took me back to
square one and showed me how to have faith like a child. For the moment
I am so glad to be back in Ann Arbor with band and all my college
friends. It really sucks that I had so little time to hang out with
friends from high school. I really miss those guys, and it kind of
makes me sad to think back to all the things we've done and know that
those days will never be again. I guess that's just part of growing up.
Anyway, sleep is amazing. A good night's sleep feels great after a
while of not getting a lot. My entry is kinda random, but I guess
that's just the mood I'm in today. So my plan for today is church,
unpacking, and hanging out with friends. Boo gonk, I'm out.
